Posted because it is a Treasure Tale.*

* was posted April 01, 1915.
May have been the papers April Fools Joke,
But Doubtful because it's not an Oregon story,
and it is supposedly an Atlantic City Article. posted March 31

* no duplicate article found in any other u.s. paper I have access to.


East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR), 01 April 1915.

Huh, cool. Love those old ghost tales

 

[jeff of pa]

yep, but


First thing that crossed my mind was Jersey Devil
More Believable then a ghost, But even so if Real the Jersey Devil would have died of old age long before 1915.
first sighting of J_Devil supposedly early 1800's but tale dates it to early 1700's.

after 200 years, it wouldn't have much spring in it's step
